Poe and Bradley Families
The
connection between the Bradley and Poe family is difficult to decipher. Almost
certainly there is a relationship through marriage. Perhaps the wife of the William Poe found in Caroline
County, VA in the latter quarter of the 18th Century is married to a Bradley.
There also are indications that a Thomas Poe of Spotsylvania County, Virginia
married a Bradley woman in the late 1700s. This appears to be a different
Thomas Poe (Powe) from the son of “Mossom” Poe who moved to South Carolina.
